A stand-up counter restaurant serving traditional Nicoise street food including socca, pissaladiere, tourte de blettes (Swiss chard tart), and pan bagnat. Everything is prepared fresh daily and served on paper. No seating, pure local experience.
The pan bagnat needs to be ordered 30 minutes in advance as they prepare it fresh. Take it to the nearby Cours Saleya to eat.
Plan for about 30 minutes.
